Why Choose the Lovato DMED301 Three-phase Energy Meter?

The Lovato DMED301 is a versatile three-phase digital energy meter with neutral, designed for accurate monitoring of electrical consumption and operating parameters in commercial, industrial and building-services installations. As part of the Lovato DME energy meter range, it combines direct current measurement, comprehensive multi-measurement functions and integrated communication in a compact DIN rail mounted device.

Designed for direct connection up to 80 A, the DMED301 allows suitable three-phase circuits to be monitored without external current transformers. It measures imported and exported active energy, imported and exported reactive energy, voltage, current, power, power factor and frequency, providing detailed visibility of electrical system performance.

The meter features an integrated RS485 Modbus RTU interface, enabling straightforward connection to PLCs, building management systems, SCADA platforms and remote energy-monitoring software. Its four-module DIN rail housing, programmable functions and clear backlit display make it an effective solution for energy management, sub-metering and industrial automation applications.

Connected Three-phase Energy Monitoring

The Lovato DMED301 provides detailed monitoring of energy consumption and electrical operating conditions across three-phase systems. Individual phase and total system measurements help users identify load imbalance, abnormal consumption and opportunities to improve energy efficiency.

Its built-in RS485 interface allows measurement data to be transmitted to compatible automation and monitoring systems using Modbus RTU. The programmable AC input can also be configured for tariff selection, partial meter reset, hour-counter reset or maximum-demand reset, providing additional flexibility for energy-management applications.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial electrical distribution panels.
  • Commercial building energy monitoring.
  • Building management and SCADA systems.
  • Three-phase sub-metering installations.
  • Production machinery and OEM equipment.
  • Facilities and energy-management systems.
  • Remote monitoring of three-phase plant and equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Lovato DMED301 used for?

The DMED301 measures electrical energy and operating parameters in three-phase systems with a neutral conductor and transmits the measured data to compatible monitoring systems.

What is the maximum current rating?

The meter supports a direct connection up to 80 A, allowing suitable circuits to be monitored without external current transformers.

Does the DMED301 support Modbus communication?

Yes. It includes an integrated RS485 Modbus RTU interface for connection to PLCs, SCADA platforms and building management systems.

What energy values can the DMED301 measure?

It measures imported and exported active energy together with imported and exported reactive energy.

Does the DMED301 support multiple tariffs?

Yes. Its programmable AC input can be configured to select between two tariffs with independent energy registers.

Is the DMED301 MID certified?

No. The standard DMED301 is not MID certified and should not be used where legally certified energy measurement is required for customer billing.
